Paul Lambert believes Alan Judge is getting back to his best after his head was 'all over the place' during the summer, but stressed the Irishman will have to 'play where he's told' if he is to start games for Ipswich Town.

The Irish international impressed off the bench in the 2-1 victory over AFC Wimbledon, having struggled to find his rhythm in his three previous appearances.

Judge was the subject of transfer interest from Queens Park Rangers over the summer, with the 30-year-old interested in the move before the Blues rejected two offers for him, while also missing much of pre-season with a wrist injury.

"He's doing well and I though the other night was the best he's been since he came back from his injury," boss Lambert said.
